Canadian Nuclear Laboratories Extends a Warm Welcome to KF Delegates in Chalk River, Canada

In August, the business delegation from Kyoto Fusioneering (KF) visited the Canadian Nuclear Laboratories (CNL) located in Chalk River, Ontario, further solidifying our burgeoning partnership. Upon arrival, the KF team was warmly welcomed with the Japanese flag flying alongside the Canadian and Ontario provincial flags, symbolising our united effort to accelerate the commercialisation of fusion energy. Earlier in March, KF and CNL entered a Memorandum of Understanding, marking a significant step towards advancing fusion energy development. This collaboration aims to focus on the development and demonstration of fuel cycle systems, pivotal for the secure and efficient functioning of fusion energy facilities. Both entities are committed to mutual sharing of scientific knowledge, equipment, and cutting-edge technologies.
